Uni Kurutoga Advance Upgrade Model Mechanical Pencil 0.5mm, Metal Barrel (M510301P.43), Black

Reallly nice pencil, it enables a smooth writing experience, and because the lead rotates writing is consistant. The build quality is what you expect with an Uni pencil, it feels well built and will last. The pencil has fast become my goto mechanical pencil, in part because the body is a little wider than most other mechanical pencils and with bigger hands it sits just right. This pencil does not come with many extra leads so be sure to pick up a set of refils. The pentel ain 0.5 B's work brilliantly with this pencil.

A good item but much the same as the previous & similar items. Which of the range to buy depends on the weight, balance and thickness you prefer. Also the price you want to pay. I have a variety of this range. I recommend them all

Sensational, much better than the not pro version , the only thing I would say is that the grips for your fingers aren't as good as the non pro , they opt for holes instead of rubber.

Good mech pencil, comfy to use.

This is an excellent mechanical pencil. The design and attention to detail are really nice. It's very well engineered although the feature of turning the lead is very cool it only really works if your writing with it because your constantly lifting the tip off the page and back down again while writing so it rotates a lot more. When drawing with it, especially technical drawing, it does not do it quite as much but still gives you a nice point. This is a lovely pencil though and I am very happy with it. I find the best stationary comes from Japan.

This became my favorite pencil for taking notes at courses / trainings. It's brilliantly handy, heavy enough for not feeling that cheap experience as with any ordinary pen, beautiful shaped, having a robust and durable feeling, sensitive and genius in the same time.

I have used the Uni Mechanical Pencil Kurutoga Roulette Model, Gun Metallic, 0.5 mm (M510171P.43) for work for a few years now in my job of calibrating flow meters. I find it robust, well made, well balanced and good value. I saw this upgrade model, so I decided to treat myself. After using it for a week, I have gone back to my old pencil. The upgraded mechanism has a sleeve that protects the lead as it propels out of the tip, but because I keep the pencil in the breast pocket of my overalls, as I put it in my pocket, it pushes the metal sleeve back into the pencil, leaving an extended piece of lead sticking out. This became a bit of a nuisance, having to retract the lead manually to then extend it again, ready to use. It's a nice pencil, but it doesn't have the quality metal feel and good balance of the old Roulette model.

I’ve had a few Uni Kurutoga pencils, this is a master stroke in improving something that you would have not believed could be improved. 5 stars.

I’ve been using the Uni Kuru Toga Advance Upgrade Model 0.5mm mechanical pencil for a bit now, and it’s easily one of the best pencils I’ve owned. The standout feature is the rotating lead mechanism—it keeps the tip consistently sharp as you write, which makes a noticeable difference in how clean and precise your lines look. It’s especially great for neat handwriting and detailed work. The build quality also feels like a step up from standard mechanical pencils. The metal grip adds a nice bit of weight and balance without being uncomfortable, and it gives you a more controlled, premium feel in hand. The grip itself has just enough texture to keep it from slipping, even during longer writing sessions. Another thing I really appreciate is how well it prevents lead breakage. The tip design and internal mechanism work together to make writing feel smooth and reliable, even if you tend to press a little harder. Overall, this pencil strikes a great balance between smart engineering and everyday usability. Whether you’re taking notes, sketching, or just want a consistently sharp writing experience, this is a solid upgrade from your typical mechanical pencil.

Best deal by amazon sg. Shopee / lazada (singapore) are selling at a higher price which is around 1.5 times more than how much amazon sells. Came in original packaging too 👍 The bottom of the pencil is all made from metal and only the top is made of plastic. The weight distribution of the pencil is all close to the tip which makes for a very comfortable writing expetience. Didnt realise how much i love and needed the line consistency from the kuru toga as i tried switching back to my old fure fure corone and immediately hated the big fat line and having to manually turn the pencil to get a sharp thin line only to be back to the fat ugly line in just a few seconds. All these problem are solved here with this pencil and the metal premium feel of the pencil is also what i didnt know i needed too 😂 Writing with a plastic pencil and a metal pencil makes ALOT of difference.

I can confidently say this is the best mechanical pencil I’ve ever owned! The Uni Kurutoga Advance Upgrade Model combines sleek design, precision engineering, and exceptional functionality. Its stylish gun metallic body feels premium, perfectly balanced for long use. The Kurutoga engine keeps the lead sharp and lines consistent, a must-have for precision work. Writing is smooth and smudge-free, with excellent durability and a sturdy yet lightweight metal grip. Thoughtful features like the sliding lead sleeve and ergonomic design make it a joy to use. Highly recommend for students, artists, and professionals alike!

Writes nicely, looks great and protects the lead well. So worth the money. Good durability as well.
